Candidate strains of the fungus Beauveria bassiana have been identified for the intergrated pest management of the banana weevil (Cosmopolites sordidus). However, the important limiting factor has been the lack of an economic and effective delivery system to maximize field effects. Catches in phe...

Musacearum and time to disease expression after inflorescence infection in East African highland and Pisang Awak bananas in Uganda]Systemicity of Xanthomonas campestris pv. Musacearum and time to disease expression after inflorescence infection in East African highland and Pisang Awak bananas in Uganda

Banana is a key staple and cash crop in east and central Africa. However, the recent outbreak of Banana Xanthomonas wilt (BXW) has threatened farmers whose livelihoods depend on the crop. Since 2002, stakeholders embarked on campaigns to sensitize farmers on the disease and its management. This s...
